Bible Note: EdB, Again, you say you "...learned of the Catholic take on James 5 I said to myself how in the world do they come to that conclusion??? ". Is it the laying on of hands, the anointing with oil, or the death bed confessions that you find interesting? The thief on the cross was essentially a death bed confession. Some people resist until the end before they accept Jesus: Psalms 51:7Purge me with hyssop, and I shall be clean; Wash me, and I shall be whiter than snow. 8Make me hear joy and gladness, That the bones You have broken may rejoice. 17 The sacrifices of God are a broken spirit, A broken and a contrite heart-- These, O God, You will not despise. Notice "...bones You have broken ..." and "broken and a contrite heart..." here. Also: 1 Corinthians 5 4In the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, when you are gathered together, along with my spirit, with the power of our Lord Jesus Christ, 5deliver such a one to Satan for the destruction of the flesh, that his spirit may be saved in the day of the Lord Jesus.[1] 2 Corinthians 12:7 And lest I should be exalted above measure by the abundance of the revelations, a thorn in the flesh was given to me, a messenger of Satan to buffet me, lest I be exalted above measure.
